Auramine O is a diarylmethane dye used as a fluorescent stain. In its pure form, Auramine O appears as yellow needle crystals. It is very soluble in water and soluble in ethanol.
Auramine O can be used to stain acid-fast bacteria (e.g. Mycobacterium, where it binds to the mycolic acid in its cell wall) in a way similar to Ziehl-Neelsen stain. It can also be used as a fluorescent version of Schiff reagent.
Auramine O can be used together with Rhodamine B as the Truant auramine-rhodamine stain for Mycobacterium tuberculosis. It can be also used as an antiseptic agent.
I can't take it anymore
So this is the end
Cam you feel my fire
That is burning within?
I have broken every chain
That you have put me in
I am free, so now it's
Time to let it begin
They're not worth the pain
Slit my wrist again!
Broken glass the key
To find my final release
Jagged edge upon my flesh
It feels so complete I've been searching so long
For a way out of here
Eyes wide open now it
All seems perfectly clear
Take my hand and join me
There is nothing to fear
Die with me my love
And we'll forever be near
